[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 387463, member: 33"] Most black people are happy being referred to as "black" because it infers equal status to "white" whereas "coloured" suggests white is the default or normal race to which everything else must be compared. Anyway, I'm sure you didn't meant any offence, and I don't want this excellent thread to be diverted on a side issue, so I won't say anything further to say on this matter. Isn't it ironic that discussing the Alf Garnett sitcoms should bring up this topic? I didn't watch [I]Till Death...[/I] so I didn't realise that Winston was introduced in this series because I previously assumed his first appearance was during [I]In Sickness and In Health[/I].
